ContourGlobal Announces Pricing of Private Offering of Senior Secured Notes

 

December 11, 2020 - Luxembourg: ContourGlobal Power Holdings S.A. (the "Issuer") today announced the pricing of its previously announced offering of €410 million aggregate principal amount of 2.75% senior secured notes due 2026 (the "2026 Notes") and €300 million aggregate principal amount 3.125% senior secured notes due 2028 (the "2028 Notes" and collectively, the "Notes") in a private offering to eligible purchasers. The offering of the Notes is expected to close on or about December 17, 2020.

 

The Issuer intends to use a portion of the net proceeds from the notes offering to redeem the 450 million aggregate principal amount of its 3.375% senior secured notes due 2023 and to use the remaining net proceeds for general corporate purposes, including to pay for a portion of the previously announced Western Generation acquisition, a 1,502 MW portfolio of long term contracted assets in the United States and Caribbean.
